"Good value with a tasty breakfast and beautiful views. The decor and furnishings felt a touch dated and could benefit from a refresh, but nothing that is too detrimental. Just be aware that it’s in a pedestrian zone several hundred meters from the nearest parking and up some very steep stairs, so it’s best to have light luggage you can carry rather than something on wheels."
"Look around Ohrid—should be able to do better. SU was Ok at best. Staff was lazy, overall condition only fair—loose plumbing fixtures in bathrooms, for example. Breakfast was repetitive and had stale items some days. Room was hig but furniture was cheap. So, overall experience only meh at best."
"The property is in walking distance to the old city and steps away from the Lake. The host was very responsive. Lake Ohrid at sunset is something to behold."
